Everybody
Has a day
Of reluctance
To be happy and gay
Nothing new there
​
Everybody
Has a time
When nothing's funny
Not even a rhyme
Frowns everywhere
​
Everybody
Knows someone
Who made it big
Because he won
Something everyone desired
​
Everybody
Knows too well
That everybody else
Will always tell
Their secrets...it's conspired.
